Here's what you need to know about investing charity assets.

If you sit on a charity’s board or investment committee, you’ll know the weight of responsibility that comes with it.

You’re balancing financial returns, risk, and the charity’s mission, all while meeting your duties as a trustee.

A guide for trustees

Our Charities Investment Service has put together a short guide on what trustees need to know when investing charity assets. It’s worth a read if you want a clearer picture of the current landscape: Investing charity money: the new landscape for charity trustees.

A fully outsourced solution, built for trustees

As a B Corp investment manager, we offer a fully outsourced investment solution for charity trustees and investment committees.

Our charity team takes full accountability for every aspect of the charity’s investments, considering its attitude to risk, financial position, liabilities, and cash flow needs.

You’re backed by ongoing advice and clear communication, so you always feels informed.

Our specialist approach helps ensure the charity’s assets align with its values and support its goals, giving you and your fellow trustees confidence that you’re fulfilling your duties.

Head of Sustainable Investment Management

As an Investment Manager I enable clients to achieve social and environmental impact with their investments. The transition to a low carbon economy and sustainability revolution, combined with rapid technological change offers unprecedented levels of opportunity. EQ Investors is a founding UK B Corporation, and our ethos leads us to seek excellence in all that we do for our clients, putting long term relationships ahead of short-term profit targets. We offer a wide range of services to UK private clients ranging from those with portfolios of £15,000 to more than £20 million, to small businesses and charitable endowments. Away from the office I enjoy climbing, sailing, road cycling and swimming, previously at a national level... all the while engaged in a perennial struggle to improve my German!
